I don't see the chat function link at the top of the page - but I like the direct Media and Articles links.  Hey - no Shop?

yep. chat is not back yet. i have to get the widget from Mibbit but first we have to decide how are we going to expand the forum menu.

If space on the line is an issue, I'd say we could do fine without the Automatic Index and Calendar links there - Profile is a bit redundant, too.

yes, space is one of the problems.
Automatic Index is the ex-Datalinks button and it's the only way to sort the threads in alphabetical order.
we can use the links in the "User' block instead of the 'Profile' button
and the Calendar i don't really use for now.

No much use for the Links link, as it now stands.

YESSS!

I guess you've noticed how all the message icons are defaulting to "Discussion" after the initial post?  It was already like that when you went to bed last night, so nothing to do with the upgrade; can we be rid of the default?

we can go back to the xx.gif (the 2 inclined squares) but i kind of like it like this. i think of it as a 'reminder'.

I can't say I feel strongly about it.

Is it just me or its the reply box 4 times the width of the computer screen for everyone?

I'm not getting that.

try a CTRL+F5 to see if it works.

Title: Re: Forum upgraded! - February 24, 2012
Post by: I Have No Name on February 24, 2012, 09:02:39 PM

I have no idea what ctrl f5 is supposed to do but it worked.

Title: Re: Forum upgraded! - February 24, 2012
Post by: sisko on February 24, 2012, 09:08:19 PM

"Ctrl+F5" will abandon all cached content and just retrieve all content from the servers again.

When I type, it gets really big. It's like, Reply Box, just add typing! When I release keys though it retracts back to normal human sizes... strange.

Title: Re: Forum upgraded! - February 24, 2012
Post by: sisko on February 25, 2012, 03:05:33 PM

so, CTRL+F5 is not working on your version of IE?

Title: Re: Forum upgraded! - February 24, 2012

Galleries work fine it seems... :D

Can I please have 200 CE to replace my avatar? :)

Title: Re: Forum upgraded! - February 24, 2012
Post by: Buster's Uncle on February 25, 2012, 03:30:24 PM

How did that happen?  Post your avi somewhere and I'll install it for you.

Title: Re: Forum upgraded! - February 24, 2012
Post by: sisko on February 25, 2012, 03:31:15 PM

i don't think your avatar loss is related to the forum upgrade though.

confirmed. the file can be downloaded, but the archive seems to be corrupted.
i'll talk to BUncle when he gets up in the morning about replacing the file.

thanks for the heads-up. :)

Post by: Buster's Uncle on February 27, 2012, 06:02:48 PM

It's fixed.  The probelm was probably something to do with the file being so large, at 31MB - I couldn't upload it directly at all.

Title: Re: Forum upgraded! - February 24, 2012
Post by: Kilkakon on February 27, 2012, 11:46:22 PM

I'm glad all these problems have been solved. :)
